'He's not dodging or evading at all. Is it a requirement of his Cursed Technique, or is he simply trying to intensify the pressure?'
Both Gojo Satoru and Kakashi were analyzing the man's Cursed Technique. Any unusual detail could be a breakthrough. Unfortunately, the Kakashi on the scene wasn't the intelligence specialist.
Even though he knew it was likely useless, Gojo Satoru didn't give up. The Hollow Purple in his hands had finished forming; he refused to believe that a truly invincible Cursed Technique could exist.
"If you're really invincible, then try blocking this."
'Hollow Technique—Purple!'
A jet-black 'beam cannon' shot from Gojo Satoru's fingertips—an imaginary mass that could even slice through space itself.
However, Gojo Satoru's words were just a distraction. He spoke deliberately to reduce Kakashi's presence.
Just as Hollow Purple was about to hit the President, Kakashi's eyes widened. For the first time, he felt how powerful a Sharingan brimming with Chakra could be.
'Kamui!'
Space distorted, as if a vortex had materialized from nothing. This was the true power of space; even Gojo Satoru's Hollow Purple was affected by it.
The President's forward step landed heavily. In an instant, Hollow Purple and Kamui struck almost simultaneously.
There was no expected explosion, nor did the spatial distortion affect him as imagined—it was as if he and the attack were on completely different layers!
The golden light was like an absolute barrier. The moment Hollow Purple touched it, it was instantly devoured. As for Kamui, it only distorted the space he occupied; the President himself was like he was on another layer, easily stepping out of Kamui's effect.
"How is that possible?!"
Faced with this situation, even Kakashi found it difficult to remain composed. That was the legendary Space-Time Ninjutsu, a powerful technique that was said to be almost completely indefensible.
And yet, even an attack like that did him no harm whatsoever?!
"Muda muda! My Love Train is invincible!"
Seeing their incredulous expressions, the President finally broke into a smile, pointing at them arrogantly.
An almost invisible shadow suddenly appeared in front of Kakashi and slammed a fist into his chest.
It was unbelievable. He was now a true super Kage-level power, yet he couldn't dodge the opponent's attack.
The shadow seemed to appear before him in an instant, without warning and with no possibility of evasion. The only good news was that its attack power was extremely weak. Even without defending, his Cursed Energy-enhanced body felt nothing upon impact. It was like a normal person had thrown a punch at him; Kakashi felt no threat at all.
'Is all the power of his Cursed Technique focused on defense, making his attack power incredibly weak?'
He quickly made his judgment. Beside him, Sasuke and Gojo Satoru were also attacked by the shadow, and similarly, they suffered no injuries.
"This power is like that of an ordinary person. Is an attack like this the price you pay?"
"Indeed, there's no such thing as a truly invincible Cursed Technique. He has likely sacrificed all attack power in exchange for invincible defense."
Even so, that defense was far too monstrous. To them, it could be considered truly invincible.
Seeing this, even Sukuna found it hard to just stand by and watch. The President's Cursed Technique was too absurd. He even considered turning on him now, directly cooperating with Gojo Satoru's group to take him out first.
Just as this thought crossed his mind, the President suddenly turned his head and glanced at him, as if he had seen right through his thoughts.
'Interesting.'
Sukuna flashed a bloodthirsty smile. Their alliance was merely verbal, and neither of them took it seriously. Judging the President to be the greater threat, Sukuna was naturally going to make a move on him.
Of course, a more crucial point was his immense interest in the President's Cursed Technique. A giant figure appeared behind him—it was Mahoraga from the Ten Shadows Technique.
Mahoraga possessed the ability to adapt to all phenomena, including all sorts of physical and energy-based damage. It could even adapt to Limitless, eventually evolving the ability to sever space itself.
If it kept adapting, could it break through the President's Cursed Technique? He was extremely curious about this.
"Clap!" A crisp sound of clapping echoed as Sukuna and the President swapped places.
"That guy ranks number one on my list of people to deal with," he said, not attacking Gojo Satoru but instead speaking to him.
"Even you find his ability disgusting, huh? In that case..." Gojo Satoru naturally wouldn't refuse; having one less enemy was a good thing.
"That guy is far more disgusting than you. After we deal with him, you're next." Sukuna made it clear he had a hierarchy of hate, and Gojo Satoru was obviously high up on it.
The sudden switch didn't matter much to the President. Until 'Love Train' was deciphered, it was truly invincible.
The only thing that surprised him was that Sukuna would choose to team up with others. He had always thought him the type to act alone.
"It doesn't matter. Even if you join forces with them, you'll never be able to break my 'Love Train'."
Facing such a star-studded lineup, the President showed no fear. A shadow resembling a 'Stand' gradually materialized behind him, like a phantom solidifying into reality.
"What exactly is the President's 'Cursed Technique'? Don't tell me he actually awakened a Stand?"
The System asked with great curiosity. It truly couldn't see through the President's ability. Its manifestation was very similar to Love Train, but it lacked D4C's ability to traverse parallel worlds.
The world of Jujutsu Kaisen was not the world of JoJo, after all. The President's ability was just a Cursed Technique, not the real Love Train.
"[Analysis] It is not some form of transference. Currently, no living being has been detected that has received damage due to 'transference'."
Schwarzer was certain that the essence of his ability was completely different from Love Train. Given the President's current rate of engagement, if every instance of damage were transferred to someone else, she would definitely have been able to find the recipients.
Sukuna's slashes alone numbered in the thousands or tens of thousands, and after his Domain Expansion, he could unleash tens of thousands more, all of them 'sure-hit' attacks.
The President's appearance was clearly the work of another 'standard-bearer' orchestrating things. She eliminated almost every possibility and finally confirmed her hypothesis. A remark Itadori previously made about the 'Holy Grail War' gave her an idea.
A 'Holy Grail' that can grant wishes also consumes a massive amount of 'Cursed Energy.' Hanami acted as a 'Lesser Grail' to collect the souls of participants. So, what was still missing?
In a world like Jujutsu Kaisen, overflowing with negative emotions, how could the existence of 'Evil' be absent?
"[Guess] His power comes from the 'Evil of this World,' an aggregate of the negative emotions of Cursed Energy."
Schwarzer had observed one thing: when Hollow Purple and Kamui hit simultaneously, the President's steps had paused for a fraction of a second, meaning he wasn't completely 'invincible.'
The President's Cursed Technique seemed to be more of a statistical domination, relying on an infinite wellspring of Cursed Energy as its backing to overpower everyone else!
